Your Donations Fight Suicide

The proceeds from the Out of the Darkness Overnight Walk will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. AFSP uses the funds to:

Fund Research for Suicide Prevention

Create and Distribute Education Programs

Advocate for Public Policy

Support Survivors of Suicide Loss

A portion of the contributions will pay for expenses arising from The Out of the Darkness Overnight, an extraordinary opportunity to meet others whose lives have been touched by suicide, reflect and share. While it is difficult to know in advance the costs of the event, contributors can be reassured that AFSP shall maintain the highest degree of fiscal responsibility.

AFSP makes the most out of every donation.

We keep administrative costs below the 25% industry standard so we can put more toward research, programs, and advocacy.

We meet the standards for good governance as set by the Better Business Bureau and The National Health Council. Charity Navigator, the guide to intelligent giving, awards AFSP four out of four stars.
